    This video is truly a blessing to me, it’s a God send. Just like you I’ve been asking God what is my purpose and he keeps leading me to interior design and I also keep saying “how”. I did go to school for architecture and Interior Design and I was 9 months away from graduating with a bachelor before my life took a turn. I had a child and life took me into a different direction but my heart has always been for design. I truly appreciate your story it’s inspiring to hear and an answer. May God bring me an opportunity to step into my purpose and my dreams.

    Thank you so much for sharing. Honestly, I have been in prayer recently about whether I should continue my psychology degree or pursue interior decorating. As I see others have said the same thing in their comments. I too teared up a few times watching this video. Although it's been 2 years since you made this video I needed to hear it for this very moment. Again, Thank you and may God continue to bless you in your life's journey. And for everyone that watches this video may God bless them in all their endeavors!

    You literally just became my inspiration and role model! I love how you gave credit to God because many people forget about him. I'm 15 and I'm interested in interior decorating and I think that's what I want to do you're story is encouraging and I absolutely love it!

    This video is helping so much, i havent finished it yet but in the UK its actually really hard because they don’t separate interior design and interior decorating, i remember looking for jobs in interior decorating and it only came up with “painter and decorator” so i hope in the future they like do something about that

    I'm only 16, and I'm really into enterial decorating, your video has really inspired me because I kept on asking myself where I would stand by the time I'm 18 but atleast you have lit up some light in my dark corner, to how I can begin to perceive my ambition as at now. Thank you.

    I felt like i was hearing my own story.... i was stuck for few years.... family, 2 kids and everyday routine of young mother.....i love being mom but i feel i need to find myself, be realised and role model for my own children,.... many times i considered doing interior decorator.... love it, makes me happy, it's amazing but don't know where to start... i really need some advise and push towards it.... 😔

    I am so glad I found your video on RUclips! I've just completed a level 3 diploma in Interior design going onto a degree but been at that stage where I've been so lost at what I should do whether to become an interior designer or decorator, and since you brought up about the differences, an interior decorator matches more to what I feel comfortable doing at this stage. Even with my diploma, I still lack the knowledge and experience to even consider myself as an interior designer! but to be fair, an interior decorator seems very interesting and something I would definitely start off with! you've just helped me take a step in the direction on where I want to be! so thank you! ps. Followed your insta page :)

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. I was brought to tears several times watching your video. The reality of how our God-given talents, pave the pathway for our purpose.
    I have recently embarked on the journey of discovering my purpose and I am realizing that what comes easy to me and what I enjoy doing is wrapped around interior design and decoration. This has been the background music to the storyline of my life since I can remember. The the power of expression through creativity is life!
    Thank you again for your vulnerability and honesty and for recognizing God, which is so important. I will continue to follow your videos. THANK YOU!

    What a great talk on BECAMING AN INTERIOR DESIGNER.
    This girl comes across very genuine and humble. For the amazing work she does I am truly suppressed that she is not bragging to the world. I really enjoyed this video while having my cup of tea and cake. Keep up the great work !!.

    You came up on my feed and I will say, not by random. I too grew up with a house proud mum, love interiors and with seeking God, know this is my purpose. I have done a little study in Int Decorating, and i kid you not am being lead to create a business. I also felt resistant, like how will i do this? God leads, step by step. I'm in awe of this video. 🩷
